Quality check processes – How to ensure high precision Building Information Models.

Posted by Amy John on Friday, June 22, 2012, In : CAD and CAM 
Quality Control Checks:
Quality Control Checks are the most important aspect of BIM model creation. Lack of quality checks and quality controls results into inaccurate as well as imperfect and incomplete BIM models. One should create 3D BIM models in various software keeping in mind that these BIM models are going to be used for actual construction phase. Thus care has to be taken while inserting details in the software provided by the client while creation of BIM models. These data’s are ex...
